St. Joseph County caught blue wave; slightly above average turnout

In the final hours of early voting on Nov. 2, voters at the County-City Building stood in a line that stretched back to the corner of West Lafayette Boulevard in cool, breezy conditions. As the early voting polls closed, nearly 31,000 had already voted. That number accounts for just under 40% of the total votes cast in St. Joseph County.

And so, it will be interesting to see what the Democrats do, but they also
